It's rather difficult to cut and patch metal like the window-area rust there, 'cause of the shape, and the fact that you want it to end up really smooth, 'cause you can see it. (You should see, by contrast, some of the welds under my car) It's not impossible, it's a question of dedication. The rear cargo area will probably require a section cut from a donor car. (And if you have to find a rust-free one to cut up, why bother? On the other hand, if you just happen to run into one that's been hit in the front..) + If you say this car, would you laugh and walk away? or would you go.. Well, I'd be scared.
